I have just used a saved email address to write an email. When I went to send it the send failed because the from account was an old account I do not use anymore.

How do I change saved email addresses so they do not use the old account.

Why would this happen.

I checked which account I was using at the time and then repeated the process with the same result. I was using my current account.

Updating my Address Book in Thunderbird v148. The darned thing does not permit two people to have the same email address or phone number - pain in the "A" to say the least !

We have an email account that is gmail behind the scenes but uses a front end alias (e.g. name@organisation.ca). Adding the email account to Thunderbird is no problem, TB recognizes that it is a gmail account. However, it does not automatically add the address book. I tried to add manually using the new Accounts Hub CardDav putting in the email address under UserName and putting in imap.gmail.com:993 for the URL/Hostname. It does not work and I get the error: Component returned failure code: 0x80004002 (NS_NOINTERFACE) [nsISupports.QueryInterface]

My Address Book appears to be old and out of date. There's at least 10 years of emails in there somewhere. Random old emails are there, but what's visibile is not really useful here and now. How can I restore at least some degree of usefulness?

I want to sync my Contacts data from Thunderbird email to Zoho. Google advises a two-step approach. 1) export contacts from Thunderbird to computer drive, which I did. 2) import that data into Zoho. The problem is that Thunderbird's zip file it too large; it exceeds 500MB.

Possible solutions: 1) divide the zip file for manageable, multiple imports to Zoho; 2) or can thunderbird export in Zoho's preferred formats (CSV, LDIF, or VCF)? 3) or can the zip file be converted to either of these formats.

I have called Zoho's tech support, but they cannot assist. Now, I am stuck.

Please advise.

In sending a new email, when I go to enter the "TO," various email choices pop-up - but not all are correct. How can I add and/or correct those popup choices?

BTW, I have a screenshot. How do I get it here?

When I try to add a new contact the box is 3/4 off the screen to the right. there is a opaque square where the box should be, Ive tried the alt/space/m/arrow thing but that's not working, also tried every suggestion from chatgpt, nothing working, reinstalled with No change Win10

This started happening a day or so ago... When I type part of an email address, Tbird shows all email addresses starting with it. Now the length is as long as the screen.. Any ideas? Thanks.

I utilize a program to scan business cards and need to add these contacts into my contact list in Thunderbird. I know how to add them if the VCF Card is received inside an email as an attachment, but I do not see any instructions on how to add it if it is found locally on my computer or received by text, etc. Thanks in advance, Ken

I'm getting off a Verizon phone account and want to export my contacts before I do. I use an (old!) iPhone 8 so I can't export using their Verizon Cloud app because my operating system is too old. Is there a way to import into Thunderbird using a USB cord? Or is there a recommended non-evil app that could allow me to do the same with my phone contacts?

I recently installed Thunderbird on my Android pad where all my email contacts came in fine. However, I just went to my Windows 10 laptop where I've previously used Thunderbird and my contacts are missing. How do I get them back to my laptop?

Per un guasto sulla linea Vodafone, il mio PC ha avuto problemi. Ora sono tutti risolti, meno uno. Ho ritrovato tutta la mia posta su Mozzilla Thunderbird, ma non la rubrica. Come posso fare per ritrovare anche la rubrica? Grazie.

Got new internet provider. Old provider has blocked or frozen me out of my prior email account. I need to see my contact list and provide those people with my new address.
